Chapter 31
It was already half past nine when Su Ci left the dormitory.
He took out a half-pound bag of vacuum-packed potato chips from the second space button, opened the package, tasted one piece, and found that the bag was spicy.
Not bad, it would be even better if it is paired with some wine.
Of course, conditions are limited now, so we can’t be too picky.
Su Ci pinched out potato chips one by one and stuffed them into his mouth, then slowly walked into the elevator and came to the activity room on the second floor.
As expected, he was late again today, and as soon as he met 4586, he was met with its strong condemnation.
"Susu, you're late again!"
The robot nanny's soft and energetic voice sounds adorable, but with the little yellow flower on its head, it doesn't seem intimidating at all.
Su Ci nodded calmly, stuffed another potato chip into his mouth, and then glanced inside the activity room.
The first thing he saw was number three in the corner.
This beautiful blind child stayed quietly in the corner, alone and silent, as if he was in a world of his own.
In stark contrast to his quiet corner, there were two children fighting with each other nearby.
Apparently, 4586 had just realized this as well.
"Qiqi, Baba, separate quickly! Good kids, you can't fight!"
The nanny robot suddenly looked terrified.
It immediately left Su Ci and stopped harping on his lateness. It quickly flew into the activity room, stretched out a pair of mechanical arms, and forcibly separated the two cubs that were wrestling with each other.
The two children fighting were number seven and number eight.
The animalistic features of the two cubs were not obvious. One had deer antlers and the other had a wolf tail. After being separated, they did not continue fighting.
Obviously, they are still sane and have not entered a frenzied state.
"I was the one who saw that toy first!"
After being forced to separate, No. 8 put one hand on his waist and pointed at No. 7 with the other, and said angrily.
The bruises and bumps on the boy's face had almost healed, no longer as miserable as last night, except for a few clear bite marks and scratches on his cheeks.
The old wounds had not yet healed, and new wounds had been added, but he did not care much about it. Instead, he wanted the toy he had set his eyes on even more, or rather, the toy that was taken away from him.
Judging from the numbers, No. 7 should have arrived at the nursery earlier than No. 8, but his age is about the same as No. 5, probably five or six years old.
This child with silver-white hair had a pair of clear, bright doe eyes, as dark as the night sky, but with a hint of blue.
He is rather petite, and when he stands next to No. 8, who is well-developed and already stronger than the average child, he looks even smaller.
However, when facing Number 8, this child with antlers and whose prototype should be a herbivore, was not afraid at all.
He held tightly in his arms a long, flute-like object, and even after being beaten by Number Eight and having his eyes bruised, he did not let go.
Hearing what Number Eight said, the child snorted heavily and sneered, "You don't know how to play, it's a waste to give it to you! You stupid wolf!"
Although he is about the same age as No. 5, he speaks much more eloquently than the little girl. Even when he snatched No. 8's toy, he acted as if it was his right.
There was even obvious contempt in the look he gave Number Eight.
Being looked down upon by him, Number 8's face turned red with anger, and the tail hanging behind the little boy, which was already fluffy, suddenly exploded.
"Why do you care whether I can play or not?"
He pointed at Number Seven angrily, "I got this toy first. According to the rules, it's mine today! Give the toy back to me!"
As Number Eight spoke, he took a few steps back while 4586 wasn't paying attention, then rolled on the ground, passing directly through the blind spot of the nanny robot's vision, and jumped up again to knock Number Seven down.
His speed was so fast that No. 7 had no time to react. However, he did not surrender. Instead, he fell backwards to the ground holding the flute, kicked his legs upwards, and kicked No. 8 in the stomach.
Unfortunately, Number Eight was prepared.
He blocked with his arms and successfully prevented No. 7's deer kick, then stretched out his long arms and directly strangled the child's neck.
A fierce gleam flashed in the young boy's green eyes, and he opened his mouth to bite the child's fragile throat.
"Number eight."
The young man's gentle and peaceful voice suddenly sounded from the activity room. Number Three in the corner raised his head, and Number Eight, who was about to bite Number Seven's throat, stopped.
This voice...
Number Eight blinked, and a corner of his heart was touched.
As he was stunned, the bloodthirsty gleam in his eyes disappeared. Although his lips had already touched the delicate and fragile skin on No. 7's neck, his teeth did not continue to bite.
It is hard to imagine whether No. 7 would die if he took this bite, and whether he would completely lose his humanity and turn into a real beast after tasting the blood of his own kind.
The originally extremely dangerous scene suddenly had a gap.
Number Seven was lying on the ground, his body firmly restrained and his neck stuck. Although Number Eight didn't bite him off, he still felt the pain of suffocation.
Just as his vision began to darken, his limbs grew weak, and he truly felt death approaching...
The hands that were strangling his neck suddenly let go of him.
Number Seven breathed in fresh air again, and the distorted and dizzy scene before his eyes gradually returned to normal. Then, he saw a strange scene -
Number 8, who always had strong limbs and a simple mind, was unexpectedly grabbed by the collar and lifted up with one hand by the new breeder who looked thin and weak.
This is a very funny and ridiculous scene.
Number Seven felt that he must be dreaming. He tried to open his eyes wide to see clearly, but the dizziness kept coming. Finally, his eyes rolled back and he really fainted.
But it was obvious that the scene that No. 7 saw before he fainted was not an illusion.
Number Eight, who was lifted up by the collar, was also confused. Just as he was about to wave his limbs to struggle, he heard that familiar voice ringing leisurely in his ears.
"Did you just kiss him?"
Su Ci looked at the child on the ground, making sure that his life was not in danger, and then continued to say to Number Eight, "You two have a really good relationship."
What the hell?!
Number Eight suddenly forgot to struggle.
His face flushed red, and he glared at the breeder who had come to his side at some point, shouting angrily, "How could I possibly kiss him? Which eye of yours saw that we were close?"
Slander! This is a very serious slander!
Seeing that his eyes had returned to normal, Su Ci loosened his collar.
This little wolf had clearly helped him sort out and suppress some of his bloodline power yesterday, yet he almost got into trouble today...
A Yan is still the best, he is well-behaved and worry-free.
4586 finally reacted, quickly floated over, and picked up Number 7 who had fainted on the ground.
The child leaned softly in the arms of the nanny robot, his face pale, and there were obvious red marks on his slender neck, which were just pinched by No. 8.
With his eyes closed, the contempt and ridicule on his face were gone. The cute and delicate-looking child revealed a fragile and pitiful side, making him look particularly lovable.
The flute that he was holding tightly in his hand loosened because of the owner's exhaustion, fell to the ground with a plop, and then rolled to the feet of No. 8.
The young boy, who was about to quarrel with Su Ci, looked down at the flute, then at the unconscious Number Seven, and suddenly became quiet.
4586's electronic eyes emitted light and scanned the child.
"Asphyxiation and lack of oxygen have led to coma, not life-threatening. Neck strangulation, bruising and bleeding at the corners of the eyes. K143U medical spray can be used to treat. Over."
After the mechanical voice finished speaking, 4586 switched to a cute voice again, "Oh my, Qiqi has fainted, we need to get treatment for the baby immediately!"
Then, 4586 took out a bottle of medical spray from the machine body and sprayed it on No. 7's neck and eyes.
After hearing the diagnosis, No. 8 next to him showed a look of relief, but when he noticed that the breeder was looking at him, he immediately got angry again.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a fight?" The young boy bent down to pick up the flute at his feet and said stubbornly, "Who told him to steal my toy? He deserves it!"
Having said that, his eyes kept glancing at Number Seven.
After helping No. 7 with first aid, 4586 handed the activity room to Su Ci and took the child back to the room.
Seeing No. 7 being carried away, the furry tail behind No. 8 also drooped down. He shook the flute in his hand and suddenly felt very bored.
However, Su Ci was watching from the side, and he couldn't throw away the toy he had just snatched back, so he had to continue holding it in his hand and playing with it weakly.
But soon, he sniffed and thought he smelled something very fragrant, like edible food...
At this time, he and cub No. 3 were the only two left in the activity room.
When 4586 carried No. 7 away, No. 3 had already lowered his head again and continued to play with his metal ball, looking like he had lost interest in the outside world.
Su Ci glanced around and asked, "Where are number five and number six?"
Hearing this, Number Eight's attention was diverted. He curled his lips and said, "Number Five doesn't want to come out to play, and Number Six is still sleeping."
The cubs are not forced to come out during the daily activity time, but they usually don’t like to stay in the room. When it’s time to let them out for some fresh air, they run out happily.
It's rare to see someone like No. 5 who refuses to go out.
"There's actually someone who doesn't like going out to play and insists on staying in her room. No matter how 4586 calls her, she won't listen. When I go to call her, she gets mad at me. Don't you think she's weird?"
Number Eight had completely forgotten that Su Ci had just picked him up by the collar and was muttering to him about it.
Suddenly, he thought of something and looked at Su Ci excitedly and said, "It must be because you didn't bring number four back yesterday, so she's unhappy!"
I have to say that although Type 8 has a carefree personality, his intuition is still quite sharp.
Su Ci shrugged his shoulders, feeling no psychological burden at all about bullying the little girl and making her cry yesterday.
As Number Eight began to search for the source of the scent again, he glanced at the flute in the child's hand and asked, "Hasn't this thing ever been played with before?"
At the same time, the 24th base plantation.
Wu Yunqin and her assistant are changing the water in the soilless vegetable cultivation. The work in the cultivation garden has been largely mechanized, so changing the water doesn't require two people to do it themselves.
She looked at the crops in the repotting containers with a worried look in her eyes.
